Thanks to the generosity of Echelon from all over the world, we raised over $1,000 for Doctors Without Borders in honor of Shannon Leto’s birthday!

The card was presented to the man himself at the Church of Mars gig in Philly on May 13th. He said,“Yep I know of Doctors Without Borders. This is so nice, thank you.” He may be a man of few words but he was definitely appreciative as he took the time to read every name. Thank you to everyone who participated and helped us show some love to our Shanimal!

Thank you to everyone (30 SECONDS TO MARS, MYLES KENNEDY FANS and ALL the rest) who took part in our HANDS UP FOR LUCA project (inspired by Myles Kennedy)!

We achieved more than we hoped for thanks to your incredible participation & will to help a great child like Luca. We will not forget that. However, we will need your help once again.

Hands Up for Luca: Part Two

Everyone can participate in the second part (meaning you’re not required to have taken part in the first part). We’re asking you to:

Print the full definition of the collage, go out in the streets (or generally somewhere outdoors) & post it wherever you can. Let’s make this huge! Maybe someone will see this & will decide to find more about Luca & maybe even donate. Take pictures of your efforts & email them at fansforluca@yahoo.com with subject “Outer Mission For Luca” including your (Twitter/FB) name & country.

Bring the collage to Myles Kennedy’s -Alter Bridge’s & Thirty Seconds To Mars’ attention by tweeting them its link to them (@MylesKennedy, @alterbridge , @30secondstomars, @jaredleto, @shannonleto, @tomofromearth). Make sure you mention @for_luca, @myleskquotes & @30stmvote in your tweets. (We know it’s a lot to ask in 140 characters, that’s why you’re encouraged to send more than one tweet)

Sophie (@30STMVOTE) tweeted yesterday announcing she is leaving Echelon Donates. This is what she had to say…

I regret to inform you that I am no longer part of Echelon Donates. As most of you know, university has taken over a big part of my life & since MARS is coming up with an upcoming album, tour & who knows what else – I want to dedicate 100% of my free time to the promotion of the band [from this account].I discussed it with Alicia, who is the co-founder of ED & she will keep going with the account & website herself. This means, there will be more Echelon Donates projects for you & the band. I will keep supporting the organization but unfortunately I won’t be able to be a vital part of it.

Thank you all so much for the beautiful ride & the continuous support you’ve shown to our projects. All of them ended up so successful because of you.

Please respect my decision & understand that I can be in only one place right now thanks to my limited personal free time.

I am so proud of Sophie that she’s wise enough to put school first. Sophie helped create Echelon Donates and will forever be a part of this family. We hope you will continue to support our efforts in helping to make a change in the world.

Sophie & Alicia

Thank you to all who donated or volunteered their time at a local animal shelter to honor the MAAANN himself: the wise, mofo-tastic, hair slinging, head banging MAD MAN OF MUSIC HIMSELF… Tomo Milicevic!!!
